Will you be close to New Glarus?OSH;1741330 wrote:I hope to catch a brewery or two in Wisconsin in December.
I'm a Leinie fan, but it's a little farther away from where I'll be. Don't know if I want to spend 4 hours in a car on a short weekend (if we fly; if we drive, it may work well).
Are you going to be in/close to Green Bay? If so I'd check out Hinterland. They have some pretty good beers and their cherry wheat is delicious.OSH;1741330 wrote:I hope to catch a brewery or two in Wisconsin in December.

We went to Taft's on Saturday. I really liked it. Awesome atmosphere, and the food and beers were really good. It was pretty crowded, but that didn't bother me that much. I also didn't find the neighborhood to be that bad, but what do I know.sherm03;1741311 wrote:Only other brewery that I'd recommend that Curly seemed to have left off is Taft's Ale House. It's in a bit of a sketchy neighborhood. But they pumped $9 million into renovating an old church and the place looks great. On top of that, the beers are damn good. It's a cool spot to check out if you have the time and if you're near downtown.
That part of town has definitely come a long way and has pockets that are great. But OTR still is pretty shitty overall.Fab4Runner;1741347 wrote:We went to Taft's on Saturday. I really liked it.

They need to get Mariokart and Super Smash for the Nintendo 64. But yeah, the place is pretty sweet.sherm03;1741276 wrote:Also, the new 16 Bit Barcade is worth checking out. The games are free if you're drinking. And they have a good selection of craft beers on tap.
Just looked, around 3 hours away...unless we drive. Then, we probably drive right by.
I'll actually be in Green Bay. Looks like I'll be going there. Thanks!Iliketurtles;1741337 wrote:Are you going to be in/close to Green Bay? If so I'd check out Hinterland. They have some pretty good beers and their cherry wheat is delicious.

LOVE that beer. I always try and have one around in case the mood arises.gerb131;1746627 wrote:Speedway Stout last night look forward to it every year.
Ballast Point makes some good beers. I'll have to look for their Pumpkin around here. I had some Warlock a couple weeks ago it was delicious.Commander of Awesome;1746840 wrote:LOVE that beer. I always try and have one around in case the mood arises.
Had my first pumpkin beer this season, by a west coast brewery. And it was half way decent for once! Pumpkin down by Ballast Point, would bang again for sure.
